Fedor's only loss was from a cut and he's walked through everyone.

Maybe the greatest Mixed Martial Artist of all time already.

Fedor ,not sure who can beat him. OFI Kimbo

I would have loved to see Randy VS prime Shamrock,Don Frye,Dan Severn,Oleg Taktarov,Bas Rutten and maybe even Kimo and Tank just for kicks .

After seeing the coleman fights i think i give Couture a better chance than most people. Fedor is very good in all facets, but he is not on the level of world class wrestlers, like Coleman and Couture. Coleman was able to take him down often and was actually giving him a bit of a pounding in their first fight, but got armbared both times. I dont think Randy is quite as good a takedown artist as Coleman (Coleman was an olympian in i believe freestyle(??) and Randy was an olympic alternate in Greco) but I still think Couture has better all around skills including better submission defence. Randy'd still be a big underdog, but i think the wrestling gives him a chance.

Fedor is the best in the world. He had some tough fights and got rocked badly by Fujita but always gets it done. Fedor would beat Randy standing or on the ground.

Randy is still a better wrestler, but thats the only advantage he has.

Fedor has proven he can easily handle smaller people than himself. I think he would retire Couture once and for all. .....

Thats funny, I said the same thing. I love Coutore, I dont car If Liddell has Ko'd Coutore, He's still twice the MMA's Liddell will ever be>:boxing:



Oh yeah, I would have to go with Fedor,<<<<This nab is unstoppable.

I think Fedor would dig in that ass but don't count Randy out

That would be a good match, and it wouldn't be as one-sided as most people would assume think. I would say Fedor in round 2 TKO

I Think Randy Couture would win this one with brains, he's beaten Tim Silvia that way when everyone counted him out. After all these upsets lately, i wouldnt be surprised to see any of these fighters like fedor and cro cop get knocked out now. Fedor got rocked and almost beaten couple times but his opponent did not know how to finish, randy would be pro in that position. I would give the win to couture.

I really think its going to be a wrestler that beats Fedor and I think Randy has a good chance to get it done. Aside from Coleman who was doing good pretty damn good while it lasted, look what Randleman did to him, that suplex was one of the best slams ever in MMA. But these guys always get subbed. Still, I think these fights have shown a serious ***** in Fedor's armor, I dont know if Couture has the youth to get it done, but i really do think Randy has an excellent style to potentially cause problems for Fedor, just has to watch the subbs and not take too much of a beating on the feet, but Randy may even be able to hang with him in the striking department as well perhaps.

Indeed your right, after the Randleman slam he thought he had it won but Couture with his experience would keep attacking and finish the job when he is half ways to beating him(fedor). I dont know what hurt more for Fedor, the slam or the punch:s but that slam was nasty and have no idea how he recovered. Randy Couture wouldnt make the same mistake
Indeed your right about Couture stand up, he looked pretty slick against Tim Silvia..made Silvia think, but Tim is a big dumb ape and Fedor seems more intelligent to fall for something like that. But im not gon say "this guy would get killed by this guy" after Serra beat GSP I'm not betting anymore but i would still pull for couture.
